Victory High School - Optic Yearbook (Clarksburg, WV)

Page 10 text:

Foreword The first graduating class left Victory High School in 1919. Since then the unending Victory tradition and great school spirit has grown in the hearts of all students who have attended. During a three year span at Victory, students have made lasting memories of the teachers, classes, favorite subjects, cheerleading, band, great football and basketball teams, noon hour activities, special awards, that all-important Senior year, the halls of V.H.S., especially the classmates and long-lasting friendships made during this time. These same memories have been shared by students of Victory High School for fifty years. While commemorating this fiftieth Anniversary of Victory, the students of 1969 should remember tradition and remain loyal to their Alma Mater. We are only lucky because our memories are more recent ones. Although, within a few years, our school may no longer be known as Victory High, its spirit and love will remain in the hearts of its former students forever. The 1969 Optic staff hopes that we have captured a few memories of this year to add to the pleasant thoughts of former years at V.H.S. My sincere thanks go to all who assisted in bringing this publication to you, especially our excellent staff.

All through the years Your name will be Symbol of honor and loyalty Deep our devotion to friends So faithful, so true Hail, Victory High School, Hail, hail to you. by Raymond Sehon There is no greater quality than that of spirit. But, at Victory, spirit involves more than just cheering at games. It involves the Winged Victory, the stage with its scarlet curtain, the halls that so often seem so lonely but are really alive with the sound of Victory. 5
